Abstract

Danni Ramdhani*, Sri Agung F. K. and Rurynta F. S.

ABSTRACT

Objective: Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) is an acute infection of
any part of the respiratory tract including the paranasal sinuses, middle
ear, and pleural cavity. Cefadroxile antibiotics are one of the
antibiotics commonly used to treat ARI. The use of antibiotics that are
of less quality and can cause treatment is less effective and can cause
resistance. This study aims to determine the potential value and
comparative test of cefadroxile antibiotics as a quality evaluation.
Methods: Test the antibiotic potency with diffusion method to use 3
doses with using antibiotic samples. Comparative test of antibiotic
testing by comparing samples with standard against Staphylococcus
aureus ATCC 29213 test bacteria. Results: The potential value obtained was 72.92%, and
comparative test againts pure strains was 1 : 0.92, and comparative test againts clinical
isolates was 1 : 0.99. Conclusion: Potential antibiotic test results indicate that the potential
value of the cefadroxile antibiotic used has decreased from the provisions listed in Indonesian
pharmacopoeia 95 – 105%, and comparative test were not much different with the standard.
